Under the' plan, the county federation would then keep all money from town- ship grants and levies for work within the county, rather than pass on a part to the OFA for use at the provincial level. This would mean a slight saving for the Huron Federation, The county now pays over $6000 in affiliation fees to the OFA and receives about $5700 from the CIAG. Under the new plan the OFA would get $5700. A letter was read from Grant Wallace at OFA office which clarified the situation on elm tree removal grants and income tax. Mr. Wallace had asked for a ruling from income tax officials on the grants and was told that they were not to be considered as part of a farmer's income and that expenses in- curred inelm tree removal could not be considered a legitimate expense. r: 4t cl v .77 x4, A plaque commemorating eight consecutive years in which Ralph Whitmore had so cheerfully contributed to activities at Camp Menesetung, north of Goderich, was unvieled at the Camp on July 27 by Rev., Stan McDonald of Londesboro.

Those with a daughter 12 or over by September -1st, 1972 who do not knoW who• the local leader is, are , asked to con- tact Miss Hunt. (By Helen Allen) Do these children really get adopted? That's the question often asked about Today's Child and the boys and- girls who are fea- tured there. - The answer 1 iyes, they really... do. Adopting a child (or child- ren) is a private, affair, just as producing your own child is, so it Is net possible to give specific. details about individual ad- Options. But a half-yearly re- port will help to answer that opening question. One hundred and thirty one children who have appeared in Today's Child so far this year are now living with their 'adopt- ing parents. Many more will be moving into 'their new homes as summer goes on,. because school vacation is a' convenient time for children to be transplanted and for pros- pective parents to travel to meet their new child (or perhaps child- ren). Today's Child originates with the Ministry of Community and Social Services, as part of the Ontario government's program for "the welfare of children in this province. Every adoption is special be- cause every one means that a child who has been' waiting for parents has to wait no longer. The child has found a piace of his or her own and a mother and father with hothe and hearts open. But two -of this year's ad- 'Options: are unusual enough_' to deserve extra special mention. The first concerns one child only. The other is a family group. • The one child is Mark, four, years old, a handsome bright boy who was born without legs and with ,only stumps or arms ending above the elbow. Mark appeared three times in Today's Child Twice in previous years, possible parents were interest- ed in adopting him but it didn't work out. The third time led to a' per- manenthome for this boy. Mark is no* settled with a mother and father, two big brothers and a Sister. He will grow up a part of a family. Dear little Mark, while finding mother and father for himself, has helped other children with handicaps as well. . Forty families expressed a desire to adopt him. Of course only one could.. . • Some of the 40 did not follow through on plans for adoption. Others have adopted children with different kinds of problems -- problems-not quite so grave. as Mark's, but serious enough to affect these children's lives. ' The special family group is seven. - - four sisters and their three brothers.__. The children are -Canadian. Indians, ranging in age from two to nIne.- They' were adopted by a couple who. already had five children, three of thern adopted. The par- ents and their natural,children are white. The three_ children adopted are Indian. These people had already app- lied to their Children's Aid Soc- lety for the adoption of one more Child, preferably of Indian back- groung, when they saw the family of seven. They quickly changed their ideas. It seems they had always wanted to have children This is the second family Of seVeti -td be adopted 'through TodaY'S 'Child.- - The' fire, also four girls and three boys, was adopted in Canada's Centennial Year, 1967. The only other 'seven ever to appear here will be rememb- ered because they attracted ad- mirers and would-be parents from all across Canada. They .are seven young sisters, hoping to. be adopted • as_ a family so they can grow up together. That all-girl family has not been adopted . yet,' but undoubt-' edly will be. It takes longer when there are so many poss- ibilities to be considered. • The next largest family was five -- 'four sisters and their brother. They were adopted-by two different families as a .trio and a pair. The families are neighbors and close friends so the children will grow up to- gether even though they havediff- erent parents and different names. Two families of four found their adOption homes through To- day's Child as did two three.; somes. .At least two, more trios will...be in their permanerit homes fa before school starts. ' Ten pairs were adopted by parents who saw them here. Of course the majority of children are adopted one at a -- time., The singles-this year have- been.rnostly_otder children -- a glance at the list ShOWS- .ageSof four, seven, nine, twelve and even fourteen. Taar.s Child has had almost no b-ables but there have, been a few -- three- months, five . months,. . Alpq . Months, sixteen months. Every one has been adopted.
